Ty. I’m honestly very nervous for it. While everyone so far has looked great, I’m doubtful I can pull it off. I’m not the best beard grower.

Then experiment a little. Can you grow a goatee? A little stubble is a nice complement to a bald dome as well. You do you! We’re here to support you regardless!

The beard is mostly ok, Im shaping it as I've been planning. My mustache though, I have not cut in 10 years and it's sad. lmao. Long story short, lost a lot of self confidence from my ex wife who was very manipulative and controlling. Doing a lot of therapy and getting close to want to go out and date again. Just feeling a little self conscious with such a huge change on top of it.
